"Lord, make me a channel of thy peace -- that where there is hatred, I may bring love -- that where there is wrong,
I may bring the spirit of forgiveness -- that where there is discord, I may bring harmony -- that where there is error, I may bring truth -- that where there is doubt, I may bring faith -- that where there is despair, I may bring hope -- that where there are shadows, I may bring light -- that where there is sadness, I may bring joy.

In all times of emotional
